Surveying the Darkened landscape

The prince looks out to sea. Wants to forego any painful memories of he feel he has lost........

 The brooding prince surveyed the dark, lead grey, cloud laden sky. It seemed to forego

any sense of comfort when observed, from the craggy, splintered mountainside, on which

was situated the remnants of the once, great majestic and immense starv-gordian

fortifications. Which had been passed down through the extensive and exceedingly troublesome and backstabbing generations.

They had spanned as far back as the very mountainside. No heir managed to survive their own reign long, the prince troubled leaned into the howling frost-biting wind in an effort to forget or at least relinquish for a time what seemed to be his responsibility. The duty to make peace or to wage war if necessary. With one last surreptitiousness glance he turned around and faced the castle in all its ruined glorification. a sign to bygone times of the older generations when the land wasn't so developed and over populated

Just as the prince embroiled deeply in his own thoughts was about to return the way he had come to exit the castle. The living flame, called Sebastian saying “Sebastian it's time” Sebastian walked forward cautiously as if the stone ramparts which had been hewn from the very foundations of the mountainside on which he now stood would crumble at any moment beneath him and send him plummeting to his death. Yet it would not happen so soon, not now he knew, Fate was not so kind.

As he entered the back of the castle to which had been house, home and death-chamber to so many long forgotten (maybe hopefully never to be remembered). Untrustworthy and down-right malicious with intent; double crossing uncles, aunties, cousins and a myriad of other assorted unsavoury characters, in all shapes and guises. The reason that he felt such anxiety and surmounting danger closely. Was not the threat alone of him perishing on this mortal plane .It was also the signs he had seen which meant a different kind of threat was imminent not just to him but also to his kingdom and the people.....

Woah, the descriptions are really noteworthy. The prose was really captivating, I think you should write it more, but can you please msg me a small synopsis of the story. Your writing is great.

I'll give it a shot
Well the prince's name is Sebastian staring out across the mountainside to the sea
everyone else he knows who has ended up in his position has been murdered
apart from his uncle and father though his father is filled with sorrow for his lost wife and mother to his son and the people.
And the kings brother (can't recall his name at the mo)
let's call him Ryfolek he has many battle scars to prove he survived countless attempts on his life.
He usually takes on the role of entertaining those who either stay as advisers to the king and those previously who reigned in the Starv-gordian legacy. Or else are visitors from far away.Seeking refuge and knowlegde form the living flame also versed in the arts of the mystics among many other skills.
THE land joining the Kaspian sea indeed twinkles amidst the velvety inky night from his vantage point......
so the rest what the reason to why the QUeen his mother disappeared is still unknown only that she was with his father who were both out on an expedition to the ancient forest which was once beatiful with luscious greenery yet had become a place of such torment to the king rememebering his dear beloveds vanishing before him only a glimpse of a dark cape then she and her horse vanished leaving him and his men to search in vain.
So far so good?
